Coming off Cerazette to TTC

Hi,

I took my last pill on Thursday 17th August and since coming off I've had loads of pregnancy symptoms. Feeling tired, bloated, feeling sick, backache, stomach cramps, mood swings, sensitive to smells etc.

Whenever I've missed a pill before I've had a bleed straight away, even when I was ill on holiday I had a bleed (apparently due to pill not being absorbed properly). So far I've not had any bleeding at all since properly coming off the pill. Surely it's way too early to have pregnancy symptoms! Confused

Day 33 of coming off Cerelle and still no sign of AF. Hmm
Took a test on Saturday morning and a BFN. Sad
So so impatient.

amyleighhx · 17/11/2017 17:14

My test went from really negative one evening to very very positive the next day so keep testing 😊

Hello all, I’m out this month as OH hasn’t been home for 6 weeks lol 😳

Kit1411 · 17/11/2017 16:10

fingers crossed you! I’ve just done an ovulation test (these ones say test between 10am-8pm with 4 hours worth of wee) but it’s negative. Really was hoping it would be positive as I thought maybe I’d ovulate Sunday (CD 14), but no. Maybe I’ll ovulate late or just not at all this month :(

amyleighhx · 17/11/2017 13:38

Oops that meant to say which was late*

amyleighhx · 17/11/2017 13:38

I ovulated on CD17 which wa skate and going to do a hpt test on Monday (9dpo) which is 3 days before AF is due. For some reason I’m not feeling hopeful even though we BD’d at the right times and I’ve had symptoms!

The fact you're showing you're ovulating is a great sign! I didn't see that on my ovulation tests for 11 months after coming off the pill! The month it showed, I conceived, and my gorgeous son is 3 months old now Smile good luck ladies! It's horrible when that dreaded period comes when you're trying.

Kit1411 · 17/11/2017 13:07

I’m on cycle day 12. I actually feel very bloated and a bit heavy in my uterus so wondering if I may have already ovulated (fingers crossed a BFP will be coming my way).

amyleighhx · 17/11/2017 12:38

I think they recommend DTD every 2 days so maybe try to do till the end of next week, then next month start using OPKs 😀 what cycle day are you on?

OP posts:
Kit1411 · 17/11/2017 12:24

Thanks, good you had some though. I basically have none. I’m really hoping I am ovulating, just hard to know when. The Flo app says i’ll Ovulate on Sunday so going to dtd tonight and Sunday, although poor other half has man flu so might have to give him a double espresso beforehand :)

amyleighhx · 17/11/2017 12:13

My cm was pretty random and even this months after 3 months off the pill it was weird! I had EWCM last Thursday and positive OPK on the Saturday and barely had any CM then.. I’d suggest doing OPKs 😊 I did them from CD7 x

Hi, hope you don’t mind me jumping in on this one. I was on Cerelle for about 2 years (I’m 32 ttc #2) I stopped the pill in sept and my bleed came 28 days later, then my period 26 days later so seems I may be going back to my regular periods, but I have no CM (cervical mucus) so I’m worried I may not be ovulating. Has anyone else found this too? Or conceived with no CM?

amyleighhx · 15/11/2017 23:07

Yay!! Good luck 😊 I’m waiting to do a pregnancy test next week now!

Thanks amyleighx! Thought I would update got a positive OPK today First once since coming off the pill 😊 fingers crossed for the coming months of ttc. Xx

amyleighhx · 13/11/2017 18:45

At first I tested once a day and then started twice a day! Started at CD7 but didn’t ovulate until CD17! See photos 😊

I’m using clue as well. When would you guys say is best to do an ovulation test.. I’ve been testing when I get home from work around 5.30 from around CD10. According to the app due ovulation tomorrow. Really hard to know length of cycle until I’ve had AF for the second time x

amyleighhx · 13/11/2017 15:30

I also had no periods while on the pill 😊

OP posts:
amyleighhx · 13/11/2017 15:27

I tried to track using apps and it confused me even more! After my first AF (after 6 weeks off Cerazette) I started tracking. I got my 2nd AF exactly 28 days later. It made it easier after having 2 AFs as I had an idea of how long my cycle was etc.

After your first AF I would use OPKs from around CD8-10 to track ovulation. I ovulated late this month on CD17! Hoping AF doesn’t arrive this month!!

OP posts:
LifeOfRiley63 · 13/11/2017 15:00

Also - I never had periods when I was on Cerelle so trying to use an ovulation app is really difficult. I'm using Clue.
Has anyone else had the same issue?

LifeOfRiley63 · 13/11/2017 14:59

So reassuring reading this thread.
I stopped Cerelle on 20th October and after a week was convinced I was pregnant. Loads of symptoms, they really mess with your mind!
3.5 weeks later and still no sign of AF. Had loads of BFNs which is disheartening (I need to stop buying them!).
I've tried OPKs but I am still confused by them. One morning I'll do one and theres a faint line, the same evening there'll be no line at all.
I'm in the same boat as you guy, hoping my AF will arrive or get my eggo preggo! Grin

amyleighhx · 13/11/2017 13:39

Same as me, took 6 weeks!! I’m currently in the two week wait again 😫 ovulation test came back positive on Saturday! Fingers crossed 😊

6 weeks after coming off the mini pill and Aunt Flo has finally paid me a visit! So relieved 😂

amyleighhx · 26/10/2017 09:28

Sounds the same as me! I was so convinced I was pregnant but then out of the blue AF came! Caught me by surprise!! Im sure it will come soon for you 😊

TheSarahChronicles · 26/10/2017 09:06

Hi everyone! I'm jumping on board this thread! Came off Zaletta four weeks ago now, still no withdrawal bleed, nothing, but so many pregnancy symptoms and several negative tests. It's so frustrating, I just want my body to function the way it's supposed to 😂
